The peasant girl who escaped the desert: she cried when she found the cruel prince

Chapter 158 Not even qualified to be a concubine
Jing Li felt a little uncomfortable inexplicably. Why did it feel weird that she was still accepting disguised New Year's money from others?
As soon as Master Lin arrived, the atmosphere was not as lively as before. Bai Changhe stood up and said: "Master Lin, are you done with this matter? If it is done, let's go together, I will give you a ride!"

Master Lin got what he wanted: "Ah, that's the best thing to do, but it's just a little troublesome for the general. I feel very sorry for it!"

Mrs. Ge withdrew the needle: "His uncle, why is he leaving? He's celebrating the New Year, can't he have a meal before leaving?"

"No, aunt, I still have things to do in the city, so I won't delay. After these few days of work, I will come over to give you New Year greetings." Bai Changhe touched the little picker's head, and the child's face was full of dissatisfaction. But he couldn't help it. When the Liao people came, he, as the general in charge of public security, had to go to court to discuss the matter.

Xiao Yifeng's brother and sister also stood up to say goodbye. Xiao Lianyun reluctantly pulled Jing Li: "You are done with your work, you have to come to Chang'an City to play with me!"

Jing Li smiled and replied to her: "Of course I will!"

Xiao Yifeng said to Jing Li: "If anything happens, go to Fengan Pawn Shop and find the shopkeeper. He will help you deal with it!"

Jing Li smiled gratefully at Xiao Yifeng and said, "Thank you Brother Xiao for your help. If something happens, you will definitely be in trouble!"

After seeing off Bai Changhe and the Xiao brothers and sisters, Jing Li talked to everyone about the disposal of the bodies of the Liao people: "First move all the corpses to the foot of the mountain on the west side. We will see what the government says tomorrow. If they don't handle it, Let’s just pull them to the other side of the river and build a Jingguan for them!”

Mr. Jing asked casually: "What is Zhujingguan?"

Shen Huwei explained to him: "It is to build a hill with the enemy's corpses or heads to make the enemy afraid and dare not make mistakes!"

Mr. Jing was trembling in his heart, God, this girl of ours is getting more and more fierce.What kind of situation will people be able to deal with in the future?
Also worried is Mrs. Ge. At the moment, Mrs. Ge and Mrs. Su are marinating meat together. The meat they grabbed last night must be marinated quickly, otherwise it will spoil after being eaten for a while.

"Ah Li Niang, I'm looking at Young Master Xiao this afternoon. Is he interested in Ah Li?" Mrs. Ge stir-fried the marinade with a spatula. Star anise, Sichuan peppercorns and other large ingredients were put into the fine white salt. Ingredients, wait until the fine salt is fried until golden brown before starting to marinate the meat.

Mrs. Fan, who was adding firewood to the stove, slapped her thigh: "Emma, ​​I'm just telling you why that young master keeps meowing at our little Li'er. I bet my wife is not wrong!"

"How can it be possible? Who is this person from? Is there anything we can do!" Su was cutting the meat, and she had to cut the meat into small strips so that it would be more flavorful and less likely to spoil when marinated.

Now she has thought about it. This girl is worried about being a coward, but she is too capable and worried about others. With her temperament, if she goes to other people's homes, she will inevitably suffer a loss and be wronged. Forget it, she doesn't believe it. Ye's children and grandchildren dare to disrespect this aunt Jingli.

Mrs. Ge disagreed: "There is nothing that cannot be achieved. If you ask me, our girl can be a princess. Even if the emperor's nest is not good, he has no choice but to bury our girl!"

Mrs. Su rubbed her forehead: "Madam, please stop talking about this. Don't laugh until you hear it. You are just a country girl. If you say this, you will become a person as high as a rich man." , there’s no need to embarrass her to death!”

"I don't think this girl is an ordinary person. Maybe the young master really likes this girl!" Mrs. Fan stirred the fire in the stove, and the fire became more and more intense. "It's not impossible if you fall in love with her!" Xiao Zhizong of the Xiao family in Chang'an City said to his nephew Xiao Yifeng.

Xiao Yifeng had a thought in her mind, but she didn't show it on her face: "What did the second uncle say? My nephew can't understand!"

Xiao Zhizong snorted coldly: "You heard about Lao Beishan this morning and took Ayun there without stopping. Are you still pretending to be stupid in front of your elders?"

Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year, so the Xiao family naturally gathered together to talk. When Mrs. Xiao heard this, she couldn't help but wonder: "Whose girl are you talking about?"

Xiao Yifeng was about to stop her, but Xiao Lianyun had already said: "It's Ah Li in Qingzhou. Mother, you should know. She not only cured the birthmark on my face, but also saved her life."

"Ayun, don't talk about other girls casually. The relationship between them and us is that of doctors and patients. Don't ruin the reputation of other girls!" Xiao Lianyun was interrupted by her sister Xiao Lianxi before she could finish her words.

Xiao Lianyun glanced sideways at her sister. She always felt that her sister had become a little different since she came to Chang'an.

Mrs. Xiao was a little surprised: "What your sister said is that you are not young anymore. Don't speak out and say things that you dare not say. We didn't give you less money when we treated your face. Don't mention it again."

Xiao Zhizong ignored Mrs. Xiao's concern and said to his eldest brother Xiao Zhihong: "Brother, since the death of the old man, our Xiao family has become less and less able to speak in the court. If Afeng marries that girl, he will become like General Bai." In-laws, there are people in the army who are good at doing things!"

Mrs. Xiao placed the tea cup heavily on the table: "Second brother, your Yibai family is not married yet. If you think the girl is good, you can show him your love. I don't understand and don't care about the things in the court, but I, Qingzhou Xiao There is no reason for me to marry a country girl who was born with mud legs!"

"Sister-in-law, do you think I don't want to give it to Yibai? It's just that Yibai is not old enough, not to mention that A Feng and that girl are old friends. That's why I came up with the idea. Besides, can I, as an uncle, harm my nephew? It's not like a matchmaker is marrying. What's the big deal about concubines!" Xiao Zhizong looked unhappy. The eldest brother didn't care, and the eldest sister-in-law was just a woman and didn't know why she did this.

Xiao Yifeng's heart felt cold. Xiao Lianyun looked at her eldest brother's face and said dissatisfiedly: "Second uncle, what are you talking about? Ah Li is a good girl, how can she be someone else's concubine?"

You don't need to think about it to know that a proud person like Ah Li will never take someone as a concubine.

Xiao Zhizong snorted coldly: "This is because of General Bai's relationship, so she is qualified to be my Xiao family's concubine. Otherwise, is our Qingzhou Xiao family's century-old reputation just a joke?"

Xiao Lianyun still wanted to speak, but was interrupted by his father Xiao Zhihong: "Okay, don't mention this anymore. A country peasant girl has no right to be called a joke to a wealthy family. There is also the second child. The old man has repeatedly asked us not to talk anymore." You set foot in the court, but you jump up and down and insist on wading through the muddy water, so don’t drag our big house into the water!"

Xiao Zhizong sneered: "Brother said it easily. I really thought that I liked to make trouble in the court. Don't look at what the world is like now. Our ancestral home in Qingzhou has been reduced to a camp for those untouchables from the White Lotus Army. Brother actually still wants to live in peace and stability." Do you really think that Chang'an City can live in peace for the rest of its life?"
